My draft has begun...

Postby notorioustot » Sat Apr 29, 2017 8:20 am

For team in Sig 1 (Team in Sig 2 is going and it is the same 1.01 pick of LF)

1.01 - Fournette.

Was hoping guy would take Davis as he needs WRs and has Zeke and a couple other decent RBs, but oh well.

I've opened up trade discussions as I am in rebuild mode, but if I have to make the pick, were do I go?

We all know the facts on these guys, I have always had Cook as my 1.02 overall only because of what Fournette could be. I'm not that down on the landing spot of the Vikes either. Is Davis really a legit, career top-10 WR1? My gut isn't convinced here.

Or is it Mixon. Good situation. Incredible talent.

Definitely not Cooks don't like that landing spot. I think it's Mixon or Davis. Both landed in amazing situations really comes down to personal preference

I think it has to be between Mixon and Davis. I prefer Mixon especially for a contending team. But Solid RB's are easier to find than good WR prospects when you are ready to compete down the road. I don't think you could go wrong with either guy.

I wouldn't touch Cook here. If you want him you can trade back to 5 or 6 and he will most likely be there because I do not see many guys touching him in the top 4. I personally would draft Davis here and not look back. Mixon and McCaffrey are fine choices as well but Davis has future wr1 potential and a safe floor as well.

I'd take Davis easily here. You need to build for the long term and Davis gives you longevity and talent.

I'd take Davis, purely because I believe it's better to build around receivers. RBs lose value too easily to try and build around them. A rebuild can take 2/3 years, you go back 2 years and J Hill was a top 10 dynasty RB now look at him. Davis has talent and is in a great situation. At worst he'll be a very solid no.2 by the time your rebuild is finished

I pick 1.02 and am most likely taking Davis (Assuming LF goes 1 which I believe he will)

I'm in need of a RB as well but WR's are a better choice long term. They hold their value better than a WR and I'm sure you can also acquire a good one for a lot cheaper than a good WR.

I'd go Davis, but if you liked Cook before, no reason why you shouldn't like him now. Not sure why everyone is down on him all of a sudden and I personally like the landing spot.

I'm in the same spot at 1.02.
Started with Cook, but then switched to McCaffrey last week. After the draft and some trades, I'm thinking Davis at 2, as he will be WR1 with Mariotta throwing to him for the next 10+ years. Titans have a run game, so Ds cant focus on pass game. Taywan Taylor and Delanie will take some heat off of him too. Good luck.

This

Davis and Mariota are gonna do work. Both compliment each other and are high character guys. Yes, please!

Would go Davis. #1 WR with a young QB. If he pans out could be the centerpiece by the time youre ready to contend

That's crazy good. I thought I would be winning by giving my 1.02 straight up for Hopkins.

Definitely take established Hopkins with questionable QB over C. Davis and his potential right?

I'm of the same opinion. It isn't as bad as some are claiming. Seems like groupthink running rampant.

1.02 for Nuk/Henry/2nd is beyond stupid. I wouldn't use that as any sort of gauge, anywhere. Even stating it could happen brings down the value of a competitive league IMO.
